Order

Tania Heller owes Reforma P.M. Limited As Agent For Martyn Watson $1,787.69 (“the debt”), calculated as follows:
Tania Heller must pay the debt by weekly payments of an additional $100.00 on top of her usual rent. The usual rent is $510.00 per week, meaning the tenant will need to make weekly payment of $610.00 each week.
The first payment of rent and debt is to be made on Wednesday 27 March 2024, and continue every Wednesday until the debt is paid in full.
If the tenant fails to pay rent and debt payments within 2 working days of the due dates: a. The tenancy at 30 Greenhaven Avenue, Opaheke, Papakura 2113 will terminate and the landlord will have immediate possession of the premises. b. The balance of the debt will be payable immediately. DescriptionLandlord Rent arrears as of 21 March 2024$1,302.00 Water rates$465.25 Filing fee reimbursement$20.44 Total award$1,787.69

Reasons

Both parties attended the hearing, although the tenant was represented by her partner, Mr Rakuraku.
The landlord has applied for termination of the tenancy, rent arrears and refund of the bond. The tenant wants to repay the debt to avoid immediate termination.

Should a conditional termination order be made?

The Tribunal may terminate a tenancy for breach where, due to the nature or extent of the breach, it would be inequitable to refuse to terminate. Where the breach is capable of remedy the landlord must first serve a notice on the tenant requiring them to remedy the breach within at least 14 days, and establish that the tenant has failed to do so. See section 56(1) Residential Tenancies Act 1986.
The tenant breached their obligations by failing to pay rent, and then failed to comply with two 14 day notices to remedy that breach. It would be inequitable to refuse to terminate the tenancy.
Despite my finding that it would be inequitable to refuse to terminate the tenancy, having heard the evidence I am satisfied the tenant will pay the debt within the period specified in the order above and is unlikely to commit any further breach. I have granted a conditional termination. See section 78(3) Residential Tenancies Act 1986.
The conditional termination order will lapse if it is fully complied with. If the tenant breaches the order, the possession order is enforceable for 90 days from the first breach. See section 64(4)(b) Residential Tenancies Act 1986.
